SOCI 235 - COMPARATIVE DEVELOPMENT

Third world societies in Africa, Asia, and Latin America offer tremendous potential for development, but the pressure is toward uncontrolled "modernization" and indebtedness rather than balanced self-determination. Either repression or revolution can result. This course critically examines the theories and models that affect various forms of development, including dependency theory, Marxist conceptions of imperialism, world-system theory and economic sustainable programs.
